It's a through-hole, right-angle board-to-board interconnect — the pins come out parallel to the PCB, which suits edge-mounting or mezzanine layouts where the board stack runs perpendicular. The square male pins are phosphor bronze with a 30.0µin (0.76µm) gold or GXT™ mating finish, good for repeated mating cycles in a clean, indoor environment. Rated 5A per contact at 110V, with a UL94 V-0 black thermoplastic housing. ## What the key ratings mean for the fit The 0.100\" pitch is the standard 2.54mm grid — your PCB footprint is a straight 14-hole pattern in two rows spaced 0.100\" apart. The right-angle orientation means the header body sits flush against the board edge, with the pins extending perpendicular to the PCB plane. That's a space-saver in tight enclosures but does mean the mating receptacle approaches from the board edge, not from above. The 5A per contact rating is typical for a signal-grade header at this pitch — the limiting factor is the temperature rise through the housing, not the contact itself. The 30.0µin gold or GXT plating is the real differentiator here: that thickness supports hundreds of mating cycles without exposing the base copper, so it's suited for applications where the board gets swapped or serviced in the field. ## Mating and termination This header mates with any standard 0.100\" pitch, dual-row, unshrouded female socket. The push-pull fastening means there's no latch; retention comes from the contact interference fit alone.","metaTitle":"FCI BERGSTIK II 86840-114HLF, 14 Pos, 0.100\" Pitch, 5A","metaDescription":"FCI BERGSTIK® II unshrouded header, 14 positions, 0.100\" pitch, through hole right angle, 30.0µin gold/GXT plating, 5A.
